Usability of Web sites is
important whether a site is providing e-commerce, entertainment, or
information. Web-Based Educational Activities (often referred to as Web

every day, most of them created by well-meaning people, and many of them
created by teachers to enhance their curriculum and lessons. However,
creating web pages does not require a degree in web design. Programs to
create web pages are fairly inexpensive, and anyone with internet access
can easily become a web publisher. Unfortunately, a great deal of the web

people viewing them will actually USE them.
